Seriously you and Coag need to write things out more clearly -_-
You said you had a gun and would probs use it on Tack. Tack wanted to steal the gun so you wouldn't shoot him. It was a lie and instead Coag had the gun. He shot Tack. Mafia didn't want to take chances so they bussed Tack.
Is that what you're saying?
If so, in that case, didn't Coag claim he had a stun gun or something way early in the thread? Didn't you claim you had a band aid?

So that's not your real item? Your real item is a legit gun?

It never says people aren't using their items. It says people aren't using them WELL. Using a vest when no one is shooting you isn't the best choice for you, you could be STEALING.

We're allowing the trigger happy coag run the show. Are we going to see a townie fall today because of your short-sighted analysis?
The only thing that could have gone wrong is if LW set Tack up. Either way, Town will win IG. If we lynch Tack and he's green, LW is mafia in which case we just medic protect one of Jackal and Coag and we lynch LW the next day.
Coag might be trigger happy but the plan makes sense and given that it's Jackal who thought it up, I'm not very surprised to say the least, he has a thing for gambits. Bum supports it as well and seems to be supporting the story that's coming out of Coag/Jackal so I'm going to be following that.
I've already looked at a lot of Tack's posts and though he's been posting, a lot of it has been either echoing what other people have said or has been arguing with annul. He posts big ass posts but they have little substance. I can post by post analysis if you want.
All the people saying it's convenient, that's a WIFOM argument and you know it. Unless things surface that will shed more light onto this situation and put a new spin on it, I'm going to believe Coag and Jackal and Bum.

Logical Inconsistency:
If Tackster were Red, why would he both try to steal the item to prevent his death, AND Red would use their Bus on him? Surely one would have been sufficient to save him. This is primarily what is making me look more closely into what's happening rather than blindly accepting that Tack is scum.
They already mentioned this. It's Jackal. Mafia didn't want to take chances cause Jackal likes his gambits. They stole and also bussed Tackster just in cause. Also, mafia could have been afraid that someone else outside the game that was town would shoot into the game at Tackster.

On March 25 2011 05:01 Tackster wrote: My analysis of the elections:
What do we need from our mayor? The mayor lynches day 1. From many it has been made clear that as this lynch is a crapshoot it isn't terribly important who gets hit (Of course I care I just mean it doesn't carry much weight when you decide who is mayor). For that reason the most important reason we try and stop a red/black alignment from getting the mayorship is longevity. We don't want to have to lynch his BGs to get at him. Because of this I have come to care less about the policy of d1 lynches in each campaign and more on whether or not they can scumhunt. This means I personally (and hopefully others) will worry about achieving a balance between paly experience and town telling when voting and NOT whether or not I have a say in the d1 lynch.
Outed Blue Candidate: BumAtLarge has outed the fact that he is blue. What I don't understand is why people believe that we may end up with a 4-4 blue/black outing scenario. The way I see it a 50/50 lynch is an extremely pro-town opportunity. On that basis alone black should consider a blue cc. More to the point from towns POV the best thing to do is have a blue claim, wait for a cc and if it comes STOP THERE. We now have a 50/50 situation between 2 players and we don't need to vote either of them. I'm not going to bother explain why an uncced blue is clear so we then find that:
If a blue claims and there are no ccs he is clear. If a blue claims and there are ccs NEITHER should be voted mayor.
Then our decision only becomes if the blue is cced do we want him as mayor. Personally I feel I would rather have a clear mayor with bad scumhunting abilities then a veteran played who is actually red/black.
I really want opinions on the above because I feel the fact I'm new might make that logic wrong. Tell me which you think is more important.
In BumAtLarges case I can see that while he doesn't have strong scum hunting skills (or so i hear) he could be clear. For me the decision is then probably made.
If a cc does turn up I would expect neither him nor his cc to be voted and instead someone else who meets the best balance on the veteran vs. townishness scale.
In fact in that situation I think the d1 lynch should probably be on the blue c.c.s.
Thats the end of my analysis rant. Next comes the voting so far...

Issues I personally have with any candidates/tactics are as follows: I feel Bum definitely cant give away his vote. The entire point behind voting a blue is having a stronger lynch chance d1 due to being clear and knowing the other blues. Even if giving the vote away means a stronger scum hunter would use it there is no way of knowing which alignment RoL is. If this were Epic Mafia I would be seriously worried about RoL for offering this trade as it seems against town. However things in forum mafia may be a bit different. Chaoser made an interesting point which started a debate on whether to pick our mayor from the mini-game or not. The chances of picking mafia in the mini game are 33%. The chances of picking a mafia when the mini-game is excluded is 33%. The chances of picking mafia from the entire role of players is 33%. These numbers don't do us any favors. Seeing as having a clear from the mini-game is impossible, as there are no blues, I would urge this strategy not be employed. (Someone check my maths, but i'm pretty sure i'm right) Chaoser mentioned he would sheep town on the mayoral vote - I personally cannot support a mayor that would leave anything up to chance, even an election. Meapak mentioned that mafia 100% knows who town is: Jackal is a little enigmatic to me. While I feel he's been pretty protown so far, Coag's insta confirm of him has me really suspicious. tbh I'm more suspicious of Coag because only the mafia know 100% who is town. Perhaps I'm taking his view out of context but this seems to be wrong on several levels: #1 Mafia know who isn't mafia, not who is town #2 Surely the third party (seemingly a second mafia) would also 'know' town. #3 Meapak may misunderstand the tactics mafia will use in this game Also Meapak has asserted he wishes to vote Chaoser but will vote Bum if Chaoser retracts. This implies he thinks Bum is clear (if uncced) but wishes to go for an uncertainty anyway (i.e. tunneling the mayoral vote). Surely in this situation logic dictates his vote be changed to Bum and not be dependent on whether Chaoser stands? Misreading and misvoting - 2 attributes I don't want to see in the mayorLastly - and I apologize to my roomate for this (  ): Jackal voted almost midway during night 0. I think LSB made it clear that vote didn't count but it was still made. Deconduo offered an official and serious FOS so soon into the game… Guys inform me if it's normal to behave that way or if in fact it's rushing it a bit... These are really intense, high information posts that I can't believe would come from a red or black. They'd have happily wanted the argument between whether to trust bum or not, but he tried to clarify all this. Especially considering how he repeatedly said he's a mafia newb... I'm really hesitant about voting for him... Let me get this straight: You haven't read the thread well enough to understand that Bum is our mayor, not Annul, and that GMarshal the BG died, not the mayor. Yet you are coming back from your hiatus to defend someone? Why start posting now, and why start defending someone who you clearly can't have read enough about to understand?
Not to mention all the stuff he says has been said before. Either by me or by tons of other people who were talking about the election why before he did. He adds a cute little list in the front, which mafia like to do under the guise of "organizing info" which gives us no new info. He doesn't do a single piece of analysis on anyone in the game till Jackal comes out and says TACK YOU IS MAFIA! after which he gets into an argument with them.

I'm just bringing into discussion the fact that he so strongly supported the clear blue even before most of the town was for him, and further made a lot of high information posts - all pretty strong contra-indicators of scum.
WTF...who does that...that's like saying I don't play this game. But I'll try to contribute. Townie would never want to contribute without knowing the full details, much less say they don't know the full details but want to make sense of things. How the fuck do you make sense of things without knowing what things are in the first place?
Also, in regards to the "he so strongly supported the clear blue":
1) Coag's post about bum being pretty much confirmed blue.

By jackals argument if I was green should I have let myself get shot or something? What would any other green do in my position?
Yes. You would want to get shot. Why? Cause if you flipped green, it'd be 1/4 chances of catching mafia in the item game. Since annul got shot, it would be 1/3 chance. You not dying made today be about you v Jackal again. If you had died, it would have been Jackal on the chopping block since it was his plan. Or we start looking at LW. If I was in your situation, I would have used my item to check Jackal or maybe LW, not steal some shit. Townies don't care much for living, only that they can somehow help town win.
2. No one is confirmed
No one is ever confirmed unless they're dead. There's no such thing as confirmation of alignment, even DTs can be insane and give wrong reads. The fact of the matter is, Jackal came out and FoS-ed you. His actions compared to your actions, in my head, shows that he is more town then you are. His plan makes sense while you haven't done a single thing for town. Your posts have been basically copies of other people's posts, and until Jackal FoSed you, you didn't give a single FoS or analysis of anyone else. You merely defended Bum's blueness, you didn't even call out annul as scum.
Why would I bus to annul? Annul claimed he was out of the game and outed his item power which affects me NOT AT ALL.
Annul was pretty much going to be read as town. RoL's stupid little gambit worked and annul's reaction was that of a town thinking he was dead, not of mafia. Mafia take things to the grave on the off chance something they said gives shit away, townies don't. That being said, it's better to get rid of a green that everyone knows is a green and then try to argue against someone who is less "confirmed" like Jackal.
4. Jackal can easily be mafia. 5. The IG is in grave peril So making the assumption I'm green: - I get lynched and flip green - scum use their 2 KP to kill the other greens - Red is last one standing and therefore red team get the items
Not true and a contradiction, if anything, I feel like IG is going to be won by town if both statements are true. It's just whether we have three confirmed townies or one. If you are green, you get lynched, it's 1 red, 2 green. We got medics, LW got a vest. If Jackal really is red like you said, then all we have to do is chill out, and tell LW to protect. It's a passive vest that makes him bullet proof. Mafia can't shoot into that shit. Black is lynched so he can't be black. Next day, we lynch Jackal. BOOM. Town wins IG.
Do I win a prize? Bum, can I get some Batman lovin'?

I meant to say that the two statements 4 and 5 are contradictions and can't both happen. If Jackal is Red then Town wins IG. If game is in peril then Jackal isn't Red.
You are green - Jackal is Red - You get lynched:
LW - Jackal - Coag left. LW got a vest. We got medics. Mafia wouldn't know who to bus, who to roleblock, who to hit. At most 1 of them will die since to kill any one of them you have to factor in medic and vest. Next day, we lynch Jackal. Town wins the IG.

Now I admit it's possible that coagulation or lemon are scum. However for coag to shoot the person and bus himself is too alien to consider. For Lemon to be planning all this in his first game is possible given he has a PM circle - but seems unlikely.
You obviously haven't read my post properly. I said a better bus would be to lemon. You havent mentioned why that is wrong
Both are unlikely to you in the JACKAL MIGHT BE RED POST.
Your post pretty much says that you think JACKAL is red. In that case, we got item game won since point number 5, which is you trying to scare people into not voting for you, is wrong. SEE! WE GOTS IT YO!

This is a matter of opinion. Feeling we lynch a town tonight is acceptable doesn't mean you should gamble with the vote anyway. Use some logic maybe?
Nah son, it's straight up fact. Just like how there's a difference between loose and lose. That shit is grammar. That is a fact. Droppin' KNOWLEDGE!!

So you're entire point there was rather than check any points I made just go with

I should just not try and defend myself and agree to gamble the IG away?
WRONG! It's not a gamble. If Jackal is red, like you think he is, then town wins the IG.
The Two hits are LW and Coag for Mafia. They have two KP. We got a vest and lets say 2 medics (standard amount).
1 medic on Coag, 1 medic on LW. There's nothing mafia can do. At the most, they'll kill 1 town.

And there's always the chance that Coag or Lemon are scum... That isn't even close to auto-win
Vest can't be stolen since it's a passive ability and all LW needs to do is protect.
